please:
- remove these constants
- export the identical constants from launcher_support target and use those here
in app_host target

[erikwright (departed), 2012/09/14 14:30:18]

Negotiated with grt that this can be ignored.

[huangs, 2012/09/14 16:34:23]

So no-op.

Version::Compare DCHECKs its args, so remove this.  if you want, you could put a
DCHECK inside of GetAppHostVersion since it makes sense there to enforce that
the file actually has a version resource.

Done.

if (app_host_version.CompareTo(new_version) < 0) to avoid the extra round-trip
to string and back.
